That crayfish is tough.

I was doing housecleaning in the 25K gal, blowing sediment out of the liner folds and saw something small dart out at one point. To my dismay it was a second crayfish! I've no idea how they survive surrounded by predators. Now that I took out most rocks, it decided to hide in the liner folds, I guess. So it has gone into Lucky's 240 gal for now. We'll call it Lucky2. The original Lucky was adopted by a family of friends and rules a 2 gal tank in style at their place.

Third crayfish found in the 25K gal. Lucky2 meets Lucky3 and immediately they mate.

3 months after Lucky2 met Lucky3, they have babies:

I used to have a blue crawfish in which I got from Amazon and had it in a 5.5 qt and it unfortunately died due to what I believe was shedding stress (1 week after arrival)
